version 3 is vastly better than 2.
There are still some problems with it, mostly due to browsers rewriting
your code the way they want to.
For example, try the following code:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<style type="text/css">
*{border:1px solid #000;margin:20px;display:block}
</style>
</body>
</html>
When you view that, you'll see that the <style> element has been moved
into the head.
HTMLArea 3 does not do any workarounds that solve that kind of thing,
meaning that you are susceptible to problems such as the above (if you
write <style> blocks or <script>, etc, in your code, they may disappear.)
Then again - for simple blogging, it may be good enough.
Donncha - interested in an option that will turn this on/off based on
the author's preferences? I could write it tonight - I've been doing a
bit of work on my own copy of b2++.
